Bulgaria joined NATO's Partnership for Peace in 1994 and applied for NATO membership in 1997. During the November 2002 Prague Summit Bulgaria was one of seven former socialist countries invited to join the Alliance. Bulgaria became a member of NATO in March 2004.
It will start on Sunday May 20, 2012 and will end on Monday May 21, 2012 at about 3:00pm.
Since its accession to the Alliance on 29 March 2004 Bulgaria has proved its full capability to fulfill the duties and obligations of a NATO Member. Bulgaria's contribution to NATO's activities is multi-faceted. Bulgaria works actively for strengthening the political dialogue, the consultations and the coordination in NATO. The country contributes to NATO crisis-management operations and missions, as well as to the political and defence transformation of the Alliance. In April 2006 Sofia hosted a high-level NATO forum - the meeting of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of the Member States, which was an important step in the preparations for the Riga Summit in November 2006. The Riga Summit, as well as the follow-up ministerial meetings, fostered the political transformation of NATO (promoting the partnership formats of the Alliance, the enlargement process, strengthening the cooperation with other international organizations, especially the strategic partnership with the European Union) and the continued transformation of the defence capabilities.
NATO standard refers to the standard round used by all NATO countries troops so if a country is operating with another country and the guy from the other country runs out of ammo he can pick up the other mans ammo. The NATO standard for Assault Rifles is 5.56X45mm NATO and for pistols 9X19mm NATO.
5.56mm x 45mm (5.56 is the diameter of the buller, 45mm is the length of the brass casing). NATO implies that this is THE 5.56mm round used by NATO forces. Similar to 7.62mm x 51mm NATO is the standard .30 caliber round use by NATO forces.
NATO says it's used to guard against limited missile attacks. Russia thinks it might be used to attack west.
